Resources

Data Pointes Guide – We are grateful to Jason Yeung and his team for their comprehensive information on ballet companies, competitions, and more. Our website was inspired by their School Metrics and training schools from the top 26 companies of 2022-2023.

Dance Data Project – We utilized their list of the top 50 largest US companies from the 2024-2025 season. In addition to this list, they offer excellent research on contemporary companies, directors, and so much more.

Ballet Scout - An excellent centralized location for ballet auditions, training, and jobs. We also appreciate all the audition readiness webinars they offer.

The Brainy Ballerina – The Brainy Ballerina is a virtual resource providing support and guidance for aspiring ballet dancers. Founded by former professional ballerina Caitlin Sloan, The Brainy Ballerina empowers aspiring dancers with the tools they need to succeed in a professional career both on and off the stage. Through 1-1 career mentorship, workshops and digital resources, dancers gain the skills necessary to build a smart and sustainable career in the dance industry.

Ballet Help Desk – Last but certainly not least, we are thankful to Jenny and Brett, who are much more than "two moms who spent years figuring out how to support their dancing kids." We love their podcasts (especially of directors from training schools), information on bridge programs, and opportunity for reviews.
